Stop Genocide of Iranians and Iranian culture by Islamists

by Iran and Iranian (not verified) on

Thank you Mr. Batebi. Thank you to CBS, Mr. Cooper, and entire 60 minutes team and thank you to all brave Iranians not giving up their Persian/Iranianness to Islamic terror and mafia.

Iranians can not be Iranian in their own country! This long human and cultural burtalities and genocide in Iran need to be publicized for all Iranians and also for entire world so Iranians can be free as other free people in the world forever.

That was exactly what I have felt, when I came to US

by Shahrokh T (not verified) on

The last sentence of Ahmad at the interview is the same that I felt, when I came to US. I was free at last, but I was worried for my friends that I have left behind in Iran. I was keep thinking of my friends whom lost their lives on the street shooting, or at the war.

Propeganda

by Anonymous... (not verified) on

This is thick propegands intended to fuel hatred for Iran by relying on the naive and the oppertunistic iranians as a means to validate their message.

US should stop meddling in Iran's affairs and focus on it's own issues within its prison system.

./., your are a joke

by Gordzadeh (not verified) on

and a really bad one. Komeini was allowed to stay in France before coming back to Iran so I guess tha makes him a French agent, right? You also seem to be living here in US, so you must also be an agent. The occurance of torture in the Iranian prison systems is a well-documented fact. Only a fool (at the best case) or on the IR's payroll can deny that.

WHAT A BRAVE PATRIOT!

by alijaan (not verified) on

BATEBI is one of the bravest iranians I have met.....and it's about time that the barbaric akhoonds are brought to justice- it's just a matter of time, and I think their s(*&ty number is UP! every brutal regime that has robbed and raped its people has eventually been crushed and the criminal leaders prosecuted and humiliated: cambodia, argentina, eastern block, serbs, etc.

i love it, hopefully we'll get to dance in the street of tehran soon!

Fred's imaginary world

by AnonymousAnonymous (not verified) on

In Fred's imaginary world, the U.S. media is something other than the official apologist and mouthpiece for the U.S. government (much in the same manner that Fred himself serves as an apologist for the U.S. government on Iranian.com, a government which killed more civilians in Vietnam alone than all the fanatical so-called "Islamists" of the world combined). But for Fred, the U.S. media's role in serving as the propaganda wing of the U.S. government is not objectionable in the least.

By the American public's (sic) "excellent historical track record in choosing the right side" , he is preferably referring to the U.S. government's role in serving as the leading supporter, advocate, apologist, financier, instructor, and provider of weapons to genocidal dictatorships on every continent, e.g. Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Chile, Haiti, Zaire, Indonesia, and the Islamist tyrannies of Saudi Arabia and the cutthroat Mojahedin "freedom fighters" of Afghanistan (just to name a few cases).

Playing the human rights card..

by iranian4ever (not verified) on

Obama is desperate to get out of Afghanistan at any cost, even if it means ditching their long "ally, friend" the so-called "Israel" and cosying up to Iran. US is forming new alliances in the ME and old ones (Turkey, SA) are being strengthened. Europe is getting in on it too (NATO supply lines through Iran some time this year). This illegal Zionist entity is afraid of being left out in the cold and pennyless and with no friends. They are nothing but a liability and world powers are starting to realise this. Amen

CBS Taken for a Ride Again; This time by Batebi

by ./. (not verified) on

CBS has not learnt its lessons in investigative journalism. This gentleman Batebi fled Iran and was brought to USA using Vice President Chaney's personal and private plane. Who beleives that Batebi is not working for a foriegn government? Any fo that came up in the interview?
Batebi is viwed as suspecious character amongst the students of his cohort in Iran. Who are we 6000 miles away to say what he did is right or wrong. Let his cohorts speak! Any interviews with them by CBS to verify and or corroborate his stories? No to all of the above means CBS did not do its job as a journalist. This interview was a political stunt by the zionsists in the US TV business because they are nurvous about a relation between US and Iran.

60 Minutes Thank you

by DestroyIRI (not verified) on

Dear Mr. Cooper,

I have to thank you, your news station, the 60 minutes team as well as your management team for been the first TV station ever to talk about the atrocities and crimes committed by the Mullah regime in Iran against Iranian people.

You and your team have shown courage as well as determination to stand up against the tyrant regime in Iran.

It is very clear and widely understood that the criminal entity and the Mullahs dynasty have committed the most horrific crime against Iranian people.

The atrocitities against the people and cruel treatment of political prisoneres have been documented and ackjnowledged widely across the world.

This is the first time that a US media organization has decided to address this issue.

IRI regime has comitted genocide gainst Iranian nation and the Iranian people. One must understand, acknowledge and talk about the barabric act of this regime agains ethnic minorities, women, religious minorities and political prisoners.

I am so proud of 60 minutes that had the courage to talk about this.

I beg you and I plead with you to cover more of this barbaric acts commited by the criminal entity and the Mullah mafia enterprise.

You can cover the stories of a mother named "Zahra Kazemi" who was hit repeatedly in head until she died. Or Mr. Farokhzad or Mr. Bakhtiar whose throats were cut and stabbed repeatedly by the IRI secret agents.

You could also cover about the facta that there are IRI sympathizers here in USA and USA inteligence service needs to address that as well. They are criminal.

Once again thank you

Back to basics

by Fred on

The era of erroneous mass media policy of lets hush up and don’t provide extra ammunition for starting another misadventure is gone.

U.S. mass media has a lot of catching up to do. For too long they have given the Islamist republic a disastrous benefit of the doubt at the cost of many untold stories of unfathomable brutality by the ruling Islamists. It is time for the somewhat discredited U.S. mass media to get back to basics and just report the facts.

 American public need to be trusted with the facts; they have an excellent historical track record in choosing the right side.

SHAME ON IRI

by Barbra on

That was so sad. Do really all the authorities agree with this torture and cruel and barbarian punishment?
